    Trump is a really a master at playing to the fantasies of some people. Even if they catch on that it's a con, they STILL think he'll benefit them in some way.
    "these people"? Do you mean forum members who, given Rand has dropped out of the race, plan on voting for Trump? Those people?

    Tell me, are you saying the same thing to Johnson/Weld supporters on this site? If not, why not?

    That doesn't mean he was invited to speak. He can't just take the mic wearing a conservative lives matter shirt and talk about anything he wants. Even if they did agree to let him speak they would probably provide him with the speech, or make him submit it for approval in advance.

    I think you mean the opposite.. politically-correct and no it isn't. However, insinuating other forum members have rotted brains isn't about being politically-correct, or even arguing a point of substance. It's about being rude. Here would be another example.... The people who tend to make such posts tend to be people who lack the mental acuity to formulate a coherent post, so they sink to simpleminded insults.

    Do you mean like he had to do when he spoke at Romney's coronation?

    This is very ironic coming from you. You constantly are rude to members who dare to question Trump. You call us cucks, and say we hate white people, and that we are "foaming at the mouth," and are full of hate, and call us secret Hillary supporters. You recently said every post I make is weak. Was that "necessary"? Was that arguing a point of substance? Maybe when you worry about the plank in your eye someone will take you seriously. How can you trump supporters be so sensitive, yet so rude?

    I have NEVER called anyone a cuck on here. NEVER. I do not even know what it means.

    and say we hate white people,
    Huh? Who is "we"?

    and that we are "foaming at the mouth," and are full of hate,
    The only time I recall ever saying, "foaming at the mouth" was way back before Bryan bought the forum and when a little gang was running around here beating anyone who dared to say they might vote for Trump, up side the head.

    and call us secret Hillary supporters.
    The only "us" I recall are those who either said they had supported Hillary in a post, or another who voted for Hillary in a public poll. So, pretty good guess, no?

    You recently said every post I make is weak.
    That would infer that every post you make is to insult someone. Is that what you are saying you do?

    Was that "necessary"? Was that arguing a point of substance?
    Yes, I think it was necessary. Because at least it possibly made you pause and think about what you have been doing.

    Maybe when you worry about the plank in your eye someone will take you seriously. How can you trump supporters be so sensitive, yet so rude?
    I think you have selective vision. It's been pretty a pretty non-stop insult fest against members here who dare to admit they are voting for Trump. The funny thing is, that well over 90 percent of the threads started about Trump have been by a self-proclaimed Trump-hater. And I would venture to say that the same percentage of less than negative posts about Trump have been to correct a lie posted here about one of his positions. So, to say you guys are causing the vast majority of the Trump drama, not to mention Trump posts in general, around here is an understatement.

    No doubt the same people that can't handle a discussion demanded 20+ posts get deleted. Typical day on RPF with supposed lovers of liberty demanding mod censorship.
    Don't think anyone "demanded" it. Stop thinking you are important enough for someone to take the time to bother the mods... You need more -rep...

    I know this for a fact. This censorship crap due to "complaints" from certain people has been going on for awhile so shut your pie hole rather than post about something you know nothing about.

    CPUd also boasted about the last time she reported me where I got banned in this very thread. The post was above yours before it got deleted.

    Posted this yesterday in site suggestions which describes why.

    They also will then come in to categories like this and make suggestions about forum members behavior and banning this or that to provide cover.

    If you want to know why posting here is light and a failure to bring in new members these days you can attribute to those tactics. Not to forget to mention the continuing derailing of threads. It is the oldest tricks in the book to destroy forums and back in the day Usenet groups.
    That has been CPUd's pattern of behavior for the last year. The difference between me and the offenders is I never report anyone since I believe in free speech.

    You display the cuck mentality with other forum members. I do not believe I have ever replied to any of your posts but any disagreement I have with anyone else you are in my neg rep panel. In fact you took the time to neg rep me the "Site suggestion" post that I quoted in the post above yesterday.

    You completely disallow any form of discussion on Conservatism or Trump and respond with your vile hate. I had not even mentioned Trump in my last few threads yet you neg rep me with Trump insults. I would say the many neg reps I have received from you constitute being "full of hate" and "foaming at the mouth".

    The first thing I think of when I see your handle and this has been for awhile now that your entire purpose of posting on these forums is to insult people. I am not just talking about the reps I am talking about your posting history.

    Oh so he isn't even a delegate then? I thought he was a delegate for some reason, must be a different Kentuckian i'm thinking of.. I was just thinking how funny it would be if Trumps delegates don't even show up. I mean we paid people to show up basically because no one has 5 grand extra to drop on a trip to Cleveland especially if they don't support Trump.

    Sorry that my having an opinion disallows you from discussing Trump. Are the plus reps I've given you (including one just yesterday) also full of hate?

    It will be glorious.
    A Trump victory will send the globalists scurrying back into their dark crevices like cockroaches. The unitary executive model was specifically designed for a loyal globalist to utilize as opposed to a former casino grifter with nationalistic tendencies. They might even try to accelerate their plans in desperation.

    He is a delegate, a lot of office holders are made delegates by the party. Like any other delegate, that doesn't mean he gets a speaking slot.

    I dont blame him. Unless he was going to make a play for the nomination in the case the delegates are unbound I see no reason to go. Yeah a speech can be helpful but I am not sure it would really build his profile when it is given during the nomination of a toxic candidate like Trump.

    Not deflecting at all. Merely answering your rude as all hell post accusing me of calling you names that I never did. Yet, instead of apologizing, you deflect with this. Sad, really.

    Never contacted a "mod" in the many years I've been here and have no reason to now. I post a very small volume here unlike some of you who seem to spend all day here but in my opinion what's driving people away is whiners who keep crying about how unfair people are treating them (mostly while they are harping on some popular tyrants positions). I come here to put my two cents worth in an effort to counter the statists who seem to be posting a hundred posts a day pushing their favorite goonerment programs (like walls, goonerment goons to remove humans who are considered "illegal" even though there's ZERO authority in the "constitution" they believe in to do so).

    You statists claim we are some kind of "organized" effort against you but I never talk to anyone about what I will post here. Many of us believe in LIBERTY so we post in a similar mindset (and LIBERTY is what this board is here for).

    Whine and cry about "censorship" if you will. The board is private property and I don't have any control over what the mods do and I NEVER have contacted them to further my positions or arguments... (or for anything else)

    wtf is your point then since I never accused you of anything or was even referring to you in my posts. Your whole point was to call me out as liar to stick your nose where it did not belong in an effort to jump on the CPUd bandwagon. Like I said shut your f**ing pie hole rather than stick your nose into something you know nothing about.

    Thanks for the clarification, I just was more confused whether or not he would have to be at the convention to be a delegate and do delegate things. I guess I don't really know much about what is involved in the process because I have never made it that far. I might of made it that far if I would of dressed up nicer when I caucused last time. That's something that they don't tell you when you go vote at a caucus, that you have to stay and play the game if you want to have any influence.

    Delegates can decline to attend, that seat would go to an alternate.

    LIBERTY is my main mindset. I personally don't care who people vote for, although I would love to see a majority elect a candidate that believes in freedom.

    What I do care about is all the insults and innuendos; I'm the type to stick up for the underdog when I THINK SOMETHING IS UNFAIR OR OVER THE TOP, SO I SEEM TO RATTLE A FEW CAGES.

    Maybe.

    That is irrelevant. It does not give him a license to spread false accusations and be a dick to other forum members.

    As usual I come here make a few posts and say nothing that should warrant the attacks from you and your buddies. Seems there are several people here that are going through allot of effort to ensure this forum is just for them and no one else.
